With warmer weather comes lawn care season, but many fertilizers, insecticides, and herbicides contain ingredients that can be harmful to pets. Curious noses and paws can easily come into contact with these chemicals, leading to potential health risks.

• Store all lawn and garden products securely.
• Keep pets off treated grass until it's completely dry.
• Always check labels for pet safety precautions.

If you think your pet has ingested a toxic substance, don’t wait—call us or reach out to the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center immediately!

Radiography, also known as X-rays, is one of the most common and valuable medical diagnostic tools. If your pet is sick or has suffered a trauma, X-rays provide a minimally invasive tool to help our doctors diagnose your pet. X-rays are also used in general wellness exams to diagnose potential problems before they become serious. At Uintah Pet Emergency, we’re fully equipped to perform routine radiology services to identify many types of illness or injury, and even identify foreign objects that may have been ingested.

Spring cleaning? Keep it safe for your pets! 🌿

As you freshen up your home, remember that many common cleaning products contain chemicals that can be harmful to your pets. Even "natural" cleaners may have toxic ingredients! Keep products out of reach and always check labels before using them around pets.

Watch out for these dangerous chemicals:
• Bleach (Chlorine): Can be deadly in high concentrations.
• Ammonia: Found in oven and glass cleaners; can irritate skin, eyes, and stomach.
• Glycol Ethers: Linked to organ damage and other serious health risks.
• Formaldehyde: Often hidden under different names and harmful when inhaled.
• Phthalates (such as BPA): Can disrupt hormones and impact overall health.

If your pet comes into contact with toxic chemicals, call us at (719) 633-3214 or reach out to ASPCA Poison Control at (888) 426-4435 immediately!

It happens in an instant—you turn around, and your pet has swallowed something they weren’t supposed to. This is a common emergency, and quick action is essential to prevent serious complications.

If your pet ingests a foreign object, a veterinarian will need to determine what was swallowed, when it happened, and whether it poses a risk. Never try to induce vomiting at home, as this can cause further harm, especially if the item has sharp edges.

If you think your pet has ingested something dangerous, call us right away at (719) 633-3214. Prompt treatment can prevent life-threatening complications!

Male cats can easily develop an obstruction of the urethra (the tube that carries urine from the bladder and out of the body). Male cats (neutered or intact) are at greater risk for urethral obstruction than females because their urethra is longer and more narrow.

Obstructions are often the result of plugs of inflammatory material, mucus, crystals, or small stones (called calculi) that have formed in the kidneys and have passed down into the bladder. If a cat is suspected of suffering from this condition, they must receive immediate veterinary attention. Once the urethra becomes completely blocked, the kidneys are no longer able to remove toxins from the blood or maintain a balance of fluids and electrolytes in the body. Without treatment, these imbalances can lead to heart failure — often in less than 24 to 48 hours.

Symptoms can vary from mild to severe and may include:

-- Straining to urinate with little to no amount
-- Frequent and/or prolonged attempts to urinate
-- Crying out while urinating
-- Excessive licking of the ge***al area
-- Urinating outside the litter box
-- Blood in the urine
-- Increasingly distressed

If you suspect your cat has a urethral obstruction, immediately contact Uintah Pet Emergency at (719) 633-3214.
